Fingernail candy – Artistic or gross?

art, candy, Halloween | December 16, 2011 | By

Fake fingernails painted and shaped to look like candy wrappers - M&Ms, Jolly Ranchers, Hot Tamales, Reese's Pieces, Tootsie Rolls, and then flowers and designs of some sort?

Maybe it’s just me. While I love fingernail art (evidenced by this whole post about it), the Tootsie Roll one kinda grosses me out. I know they’re fake nails and it’s not a big deal, but it’s kinda weird to have it shaped like the wrapper at the there. No thanks.

Also, are the middle ones supposed to be some sort of candy? Or is it random swirlies and such?

Christmas tree sushi -Deck the halls with boughs of Japanese mayo

Sushi art can keep my attention for way longer than it probably should, but I love it. People can get so creative with it and here’s an example of a cool Christmas twist….even if it’s not exactly “traditional.”  Shape them into little Christmas trees and then chow down.

Christmas tree sushi

300g cooked Japanese rice
2 TBS rice vinegar
100g chopped toro
1 avocado
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 nori sheet
4 shiso
chopped green onion
ikura
mayonnaise
4 star-shaped cheese (meiji)
soy sauce

Follow instructions in the video to see how to make them. :)

Some people take “playing with your food” to a whole new level. Judith G. Klausner is one of those people. She has several more oreo cameos, plus some other food-related art like this cereal sampler.

Yum.
